Shamin Hotels Website Launch Kicks Off Incredible Six Months
Shamin Hotels is already one of the fastest growing hotel management companies on the east coast, but in the next six months they're taking steps toward becoming a dominant force in the industry. The first step was announced today with the unveiling of their new website, www.shaminhotels.com.
Richmond, VA (PRWEB) July 20, 2006 -- In their continuing quest to remain not only one of the fastest growing hotel management companies on the east coast, but also the best, Shamin Hotels today launched a new corporate website, the first move in what will be an unprecedented series of changes for the company. In addition to the website launch, during the next six months the company is expected to break ground on six new properties, undergo a series of internal changes, and continue to add to their new website offering premier golf and spa packages.
“This is a thrilling time for Shamin Hotels,” said Chief Operating Officer Neil Amin. “We are a growing company, and we’re moving toward becoming a dominant force in the hospitality industry.”
The website, www.shaminhotels.com, offers not only ease-of-use but also more tools for guests and those who wish to book meeting space or banquets in a Shamin Hotel venue. Potential customers can view maps of the properties, see 360-degree tours of hotels, and see details such as amenities and total meeting space. They also can find sales professionals within the company who can offer pricing information and answer questions quickly. Additionally, visitors to the site can learn about Shamin Hotels, its history, its management, and the services it offers.
“We felt this was an opportunity to enhance our presence, and I’m very excited about the new look and flexibility of our site,” said Shamin Hotels Vice President of Sales and Marketing Joe Reardon. “A quality website is a must in the hospitality industry.”
The Shaminhotels.com website launch is only the beginning. In the next five years, Shamin Hotels plans to double the size of its portfolio. The first moves toward that goal will happen soon, as the company expects to break ground on SIX new properties in Virginia.
·New hotels on the way
This fall, Shamin Hotels expects to break ground on the Holiday Inn Millennium and Hampton Inn in Colonial Heights, VA, as well as the Hilton Garden Inn and Holiday Inn Select Conference Center at Richmond International Airport and the Hampton Inn in Hampton, VA. In the winter, the company expects to break ground on the Hilton Hotel and Spa in Short Pump, VA.
·Internal changes for a growing company
Firms that are growing as fast as Shamin Hotels cannot do so without internal changes. The company has added approximately 10 new sales professionals in the past several months to strategically align itself for future growth. Additionally, Shamin has announced the addition of new Chief Financial Officer Grayson Owen, new Vice President of Sales and Marketing Joe Reardon, new Vice President of Food and Beverage Nick Petrone, and new Human Resources Director Debra Girvin. The company continues to create a well-seasoned executive team that will guide it through this period of rapid growth, and more announcements will be forthcoming.
·RichmondGolfPackages.com offering deals for golfers
Shamin Hotels also has forged agreements to bring sportsmen and women from around the country to Metro Richmond for a “golfing experience.” The company recently launched RichmondGolfPackages.com, a website that offers packages for golfers to play at River’s Bend Golf Club while staying at a Shamin Hotels property.
